I know what it i-iiiiiis. I can't tell though! ;-)
Desktop image
As nice as it is, I've grown tired of the default desktop image for OS X. So, I'm taking matters into my own hands. As I create new ones, I'll post them here. I hope to eventually start writing programs to generate images. Until then, Photoshop is going to have to suffice.
This image is what's currently on my notebook. The source material is a photograph that I took the other day. I'll send a gift to the first person who can guess what it is. I'll even give you some help. I did the following to the picture to produce this image:
- Crop
- Motion blur
- Brightness/Contrast
- Hue/Saturation

well…i'll take a stab at it. kind of reminds me of the pattern that makes up tha back of a woven chair. you know, that waffle weave kind look.
uuuuh…scratch that. how about a comb? am i even remotely close?
Not a weave. Not a comb. No, you're not close. Interesting guesses, though.
Is that color Indi Blue perhaps?
oh wait. yours is British Racing Green…nevermind
It has nothing to do with my car.
Venetian blinds?
Sorry.
Is it one of your dinner plates?
Good try. But, no.
I don't know what it is, but something about that image SCREAMS Microsoft.
